Abstract
The detection of motion of a user via a camera and the generation of a dynamic virtual representation of a user on a display, where the user's detected motion causes the dynamic virtual representation to interact with virtual objects on the display. The magnitude and direction of the user's detected motion is calculated to determine the magnitude and direction of a force applied by the dynamic virtual representation to the virtual object. Further arrangements include water or smoke fluid simulations, in order to enhance the user experience.
